I am using git pull.  I am trying to find the outgoing IP address(es) from
my
employer's network administrators - I have not heard from them yet.  I am
using a Linux machine for the request, so I can't see the outgoing IP
addresses.

If I were using my Windows machine, I could see that through the Zscaler
app.  But that information is not accessible to me from Linux machines in
our DC.

If this is using the git http backend you are probably hitting the

I am using the https protocol.  Our network administrators have blocked git:
and ssh: for egress to repositories as they consider ssh to be a security
risk.
